I noticed Arcimoto's facebook reply to an unhappy Elio reservationist about an upcoming announcement regarding a possible bonus offer for Elio and perhaps other vehicle reservation holders. I hope it's not a reservation match similar to Electra Meccanica's program.

I've been providing Elio forum members with information regarding the SRK & SOLO for a couple of years. Most seem to be anti-ev, have range anxiety issues, think the base SRK is overpriced compared to Elio's base price, and most indicate little interest to the point that the moderators asked me to stop posting positive Arcimoto progress reports. However, a few have crossed over to the light side and see the SRK and or the SOLO as a viable option should Elio fail to deliver. I question vast numbers (thousands) of the Elio ICE mentalities becoming future SRK owners with all their current angst.

A discount marketing incentive could be seen as a negative by early reservation holders. Also, possibly negatively impact Arcimoto's already lower profit margins of a typical direct to consumer sales model. I trust the A Team has weighed the pluses and minuses of such a marketing campaign.

At present, commuters in most European cities are confronted with traffic congestion and tailbacks that make the price of a small, urban EV that could possibly decrease daily commutes by even a small amount negligible. That is why Mercedes can price their Smart 4two in the same bracket as a medium class, family car. Price is not the primary factor. The question of increased utility is probably decisive.

According to their circular, their debt is way less than $10 mil (something on the order of 300k, I think?). The vast majority of the money is intended for development and production. Totally cause for celebration.
